Bug Description
Note that this MIR replaces the MIR for Argyll (bug 821883). After a short discussion with Martin Pitt (pitti) I have separated the source packages of argyll and libicc again to only promote libicc into Main.
Availability: Currently available in Universe, building on all currently supported architectures, see https:/
Rationale: In Oneiric we want to introduce ICC-based color management on the operating system level, using the same architecture as Fedora does. libicc (ICC handling library) are part of this architecture. Therefore we need them in Main. This MIR is a work item of the following Blueprint:
https:/
According to the Blueprint additional demand on CD space for the whole introduction of color management is around 300K only.
Security: No security vulnerabilities known at CVE and Secunia for the current version, vulnerabilities of older versions are all fixed, no SUID components, no daemons.
Quality assurance: Installs without debconf questions. The package is maintained upstream as new releases occur regularly and they get packaged for Debian by Roland Mas (see debian/changelog).
UI standards: The package is a library without UI.
Dependencies: Depends only on standard libraries and will be needed by Ghostscript and other color-managed applications.
Maintenance: See "Quality assurance".
